    Just my luck that on last visit to Winnipeg site Thursday the Tesla techs were on site from Toronto. Super nice guys and they said they are working hard on bringing everything online in next few weeks and one fellow didn't think the timing of opening was linked to November 21 Cybertruck reveal!

    I guess I'm the only one on this sub-forum who thinks there likely won't be a big "reveal" or announcement regarding the TCH superchargers.

    You and I have both been wrong about a few details, but I'm with you on this one.
    It's also possible that Tesla won't say anything but it will be a big splash in the media from a bunch of Tesla owners (new and existing).

    Sure, I suppose if we are considering coverage from Elektrek and the Moose Jaw Times-Herald, then there will be a big "Tesla reveal" of some sort. I just doubt that Tesla issues a press release or anything. At best, it might get a mention in passing from Elon.

    I am going to agree with you, just so you aren't alone :). I think it will just happen.
    I know my local e-media is covering it here, like they did for Petro-Canada.
    From what the crew told me, "Tesla is on our tails", I think it could be operational all along the route by the end of next week if not sooner.
    Well, at least from Kenora to Calgary and hopefully all the way east.
    I guess I am an optimist.:D

    During the last hockey game I saw the Petro-Canada ads saying they have electrified Canada from coast to coast so you can now drive it all electric. (Complete with highway line painting truck instead putting lightning bolts on the pavement). That seems a little premature, but they're going in the right direction, I guess. I'm sure anyone with curiosity or a need to know will hear about the go-live by word of mouth.

    I believe all of Manitoba & Saskatchewan Petro Can chargers are live now!

    Plugshare indicates Brandon and Whitewood as "coming soon". I see Brandon is supposedly live on some other post. Of course, that doesn't help until Chademo adapters are back in stock. "Almost there" is getting closer all the time.

    The Brandon Petro Canada CHAdeMO is LIVE for certain. I made that post & was there to watch two cars getting charged. Pretty sure Tom, the Saskatchewan & Manitoba supervisor said that Portage & East of Winnipeg/Dugald? would be fired up last week also. The Saskatchewan people have said all the Saskatchewan Petro Canada chargers were operational & free. This is all very good news!

    Deacons Corner, east side of Winnipeg didn't get activated last week. Apparently it was because of Manitoba Hydro delay.

    It is live now, though. They flipped the switch on Friday, and I was able to charge.

    I did a quick & dirty on that and got about 1750 kms now SpC-able between the Red Deer Gasoline Alley, AB, and the Wawa, ON. Whatever the exact number, I'm going to assert that's not only a record, but one that should last a long, long time - perhaps forever. It is possible if not desirable to jump through Upsala.



    (C'mon, Tesla: prove me wrong and light up the way between Fairbanks and, say, Vancouver....:))

    Weird, yesterday Tesla has changed a lot of their mid-Canada location ids from (for example) "maplecreeksupercharger" to "maplecreeksksupercharger" and so on. Now it seems they've changed them back :-/

    From a software development perspective, you can break a lot of things and piss off a lot of people if you change IDs which are assumed to be immutable and unchanging. I'm guessing there was an issue and they reverted to the previous IDs so as not to break anything downstream.
